How can you survive an EF-5 tornado?
Fortunately, even if you are hit by an EF5 tornado, your chances being affected by the strongest winds are fairly small. That said, if you are impacted by such winds, survival is unlikely if you are not underground or in a specially designed above-ground tornado shelter. If a tornado is approaching, seek shelter in a basement or cellar. If you do not have one, go to an interior room on the lowest floor of your house. Mobile homes should be abandoned for sturdier shelter. If you live in an area prone to violent tornadoes and do not have a basement, you should seriously consider getting a storm shelter.
